Our IGERT trainees and affiliates continue to receive prestigious awards for their research efforts.
Chi Huang received a Greenguard Scholarship and an Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA) graduate scholarship for her studies on the chemistry and biology of green building materials.
Diana Hun received an Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA) graduate scholarship for her efforts to better understand the effects of race and income on human exposure to toxic chemicals in homes.
Federico Noris received a graduate student Grant-in-Aid award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)for his research related to the use of HVAC filters to characterize human exposure to airborne biological agents in buildings.
Donghyun Rim received a graduate student Grant-in-Aid award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) for his studies of human exposure to particulate matter in buildings.
Brent Stephens received a graduate student Grant-in-Aid award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) for his efforts toward better understanding air conditioning energy consumption in residential and light commercial buildings.
Michael Waring received a graduate student Grant-in-Aid award from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and a Harrington Dissertation Fellowship, possibly the most prestigious research award given to a doctoral student in any discipline at the University of Texas at Austin. Michael’s awards are for his exceptional performance in studying the role of ozone sources on both homogeneous and heterogeneous chemistry and their effects on the formation of toxic gases and nano-particles in buildings.
